Remember Costas and his other stupid comments completely out of the context of the TV show that he was doing.

In this interview, when describing how 60+ Colts of the 80 man football team had raised their hands in response to a question about them carrying guns he said

even if every one of those guys had a gun legally, you have to believe that more bad things than good are going to come of that.

Talk about fear mongering. And that belief was based on what?

One word: ignorance.

And, Racism. What percentage of Colt's team members are black? Costas' statement insinuates that some? most? all? of the team members have illegal weapons. Does his statement also profile NFL players as criminals? That out of 65 gun owners some of them are going to get into trouble, in the general population those estimates are per 100,000, not 65.
